Should I also tip the delivery driver, and the person who made the product?
Grubhub is similar.
Don’t forget to tip Galen Weston.
T&T is a Loblaws chain. It’s wholly unsurprising that they’d be this scummy
Honestly it’s not a small job to go up and down the aisles and collect everything.
Though tipping groceries seems odd.

I would expect that their pay covers the work, and if that, then the “handling fee” should.
If not, then their damn employer needs to step up!
I expect the subtotal is the actual price of groceries, handling fee is the cost of the employee collecting them, mailing is mailing.
… handling fee is the cost of the employee collecting them…
The cost to pay them, or as a “convenience fee” for the customer? Because there are no handling fees at any other grocery stores, except for a $1 from one place.
And their pay should come from their employer.
And of this is being delivered, do I tip the driver, too? When is it too much?
Fuck off with the tipping bullshit already.
Pay your damn staff properly and stop trying to guilt your customers into subsidizing your cheapness.
Tipping is kind and shows respect and appreciation. However I don’t tip anyone that I’ve never met.
For most of these pre tip gigs though it’s become bribery. It’s not a tip if I’m trying to convince someone to take the job, that’s a bribe
I think of it like a bid for the work order. In fact, I think I read somewhere that that’s explicitly how it works for instacart: the tip values are shown before the insta employee/contractor picks up the job, and they’re encouraged to only take the ones that pay worth their time.
Agreed. But until we actually hold these giant companies accountable, please don’t take it out on the worker by stiffing them. If you don’t want to pay the fees, don’t use that service, and tell them that.

Got any practical method of doing that?
